With some actor friends and  a shed at the bottom of the garden we recorded these playlets: they are in MP3 format.   They load up quite quickly and I know they play in Firefox.  A good, free, player is VLC, downloadable from Sourceforge.net. These recordings are, of  course, covered by copyright .   If you wanted to do anything with them  other than personal viewing (one, for instance, has been staged) my e- mail address is ben@francisgb.myzen.co.uk.
